1. Introduction

The 27106T vertical propeller anemometer is a low threshold precision air velocity sensor that is

especially suited for monitoring the vertical wind component. It connects directly to a Campbell

Scientific data logger, which measures the 27106T signal and converts the signal to engineering

units (mph, m/s, knots).

NOTE:

This manual provides information only for CRBasic data loggers. For retired Edlog data logger

support, see an older manual at www.campbellsci.com/old-manuals .

2. Precautions

lREAD AND UNDERSTAND the Safety section at the back of this manual.

lThe 27106T is a precision instrument. Please handle it with care.

lThe black outer jacket of the cable is Santoprene® rubber. This compound was chosen for

its resistance to temperature extremes, moisture, and ultraviolet (UV) degradation.

However, this jacket will support combustion in air. It is rated as slow burning when tested

according to U.L. 94 H.B. and will pass FMVSS302. Local fire codes may preclude its use

inside buildings.

3. Initial inspection

Upon receipt of your shipment, immediately open the shipping carton and ensure that you have

all of the 27106T components. If an item is not initially visible, remove the foam from the shipping

carton and thoroughly inspect both sides of the foam for the item. Immediately contact

Campbell Scientific if any item is missing.

Make sure you have removed and accounted for all items from the shipping carton before

discarding the shipping foam and shipping carton. The foam can hide some of the items.

The shipping carton should include:

l16-inch-by-2-inch-by-2-inch box labeled Propeller Anemometer, which contains the

propeller shaft

l9-inch-by-9-inch-by-2-inch box labeled Carbon Fiber Propeller

lCable (routed through the mounting pipe to mating connector)

l3/4-inch IPS threaded pipe

4. QuickStart

A video that describes data logger programming using Short Cut is available at:

www.campbellsci.com/videos/cr1000x-datalogger-getting-started-program-part-3 .Short Cut

is an easy way to program your data logger to measure this sensor and assign data logger wiring

terminals. Short Cut is available as a download on www.campbellsci.com . It is included in

installations of LoggerNet,RTDAQ, or PC400.

Use the following procedure to get started.

1. Open Short Cut and create a new program.

2. Double-click the data logger model.

27106T Vertical Propeller Anemometer 2

3. In the Available Sensors and Devices box, type 27106T. You can also locate the sensor in the

Sensors >Meteorological >Wind Speed & Direction folder. Double-click 27106T Wind

Speed Sensor. The units default to meters/second, which can be changed by clicking the

Wind Speed box and selecting one of the other options.

4. Click on the Wiring tab, wire the sensor, then click OK.

5. Repeat steps three and four for other sensors you want to measure. Click Next.

6. In Output Setup, enter the scan rate and Data Output Storage Interval.

7. Select the output options.

8. Click Finish and save the program. Send the program to the data logger if the data logger

is connected to the computer.

9. If the sensor is connected to the data logger, check the output of the sensor in the data

display in LoggerNet,RTDAQ, or PC400 to make sure it is making reasonable

measurements.

5. Overview

The 27106T measures air velocity using a fast-response, four-blade helicoid propeller that drives

a high quality tech-generator transducer. The transducer converts the propeller rotation to a DC

voltage that is linearly proportional to air velocity. The 27106T connects directly to a Campbell

Scientific data logger, which measures the 27106T signal and converts the signal to engineering

units (mph, m/s, knots).

The 27106T is manufactured by R.M. Young (Traverse City, MI) and cabled by Campbell Scientific

for use with our data loggers. The R.M. Young instruction manual includes additional information

on the operating principles, installation, and maintenance of the sensor.

Features:

lEspecially suited for monitoring vertical wind, but can be mounted to monitor the wind in

whatever direction is desired

lCarbon-fiber thermoplastic (CFT) propeller provides greater range and durability than

other propeller anemometers offered by R.M. Young.

lCompatible with Campbell Scientific CRBasic data loggers: CR6, CR1000X, CR800 series,

CR350 series, CR300 series, CR3000, CR1000

7. Installation

If you are programming your data logger with Short Cut, skip Wiring (p. 6) and Programming (p.

6). Short Cut does this work for you. See QuickStart (p. 2) for a Short Cut tutorial.

7.1 Wiring

Connections to Campbell Scientific data loggers are given in Table 7-1 (p. 6).

Table 7-1: Wire color, wire function, and data logger connection

White Signal Uconfigured for single-ended analog input1,

Black Signal reference ⏚(analog ground)

Clear Shield ⏚(analog ground)

1Uterminals are automatically configured by the measurement instruction.

7.2 Programming

Short Cut is the best source for up-to-date data logger programming code. If your data

acquisition requirements are simple and you are connecting the sensor to a pulse terminal, you

can probably create and maintain a data logger program exclusively by using Short Cut. If your

data acquisition needs are more complex, the files that Short Cut creates are a great source for

programming code to start a new program or add to an existing custom program.

NOTE:

Short Cut cannot edit programs after they are imported and edited in CRBasic Editor.

AShort Cut tutorial is available in QuickStart (p. 2). If you wish to import Short Cut code into

CRBasic Editor to create or add to a customized program, follow the procedure in Importing

Short Cut code into CRBasic Editor (p. 14). Programming basics for CRBasic data loggers are

provided in the following sections. A complete program is provided in Example program (p. 15).

Programming basics and programming examples for Edlog data loggers are provided at

www.campbellsci.com\old-manuals .

7.2.1 VoltSE() instruction

The VoltSE() measurement instruction programs the data logger to measure the 27106T.

VoltSE(Dest, Reps, Range, SEChan, MeasOff, SettlingTime, Integ/fnotch, Mult,

Offset)

For Range, use mV2500 (CR300, CR1000) or mV5000 (CR6, CR1000X, CR3000). If the

anemometer will be in electrically noisy environments, use 50Hz or 60Hz rejection for

Integ/fnotch.

7.2.2 Multiplier and offset

The expression for wind speed (U) is:

U = MX + B

Where,

M = multiplier

X = voltage measured by the data logger

B = offset

Table 7-2 (p. 8) lists the multipliers to obtain miles/hour, meters/second, km/hr, and knots. The

helicoid propeller has a calibration that passes through zero, so the offset is zero.

27106T Vertical Propeller Anemometer 7

Table 7-2: Wind speed multiplier1

Unit Multiplier

Miles per hour 0.04025

Meters/Second 0.01800

Kilometers/Hour 0.06480

Knots 0.03496

1When the propeller is used for measuring the vertical wind component, users may want to apply an additional

multiplier of 1.25 to the output signal. This may be done numerically in the data processing operations or

electronically in the signal conditioning. Using the additional multiplier brings the anemometer output signal within

±3% of the cosine response for elevation angles between –30° and 30°. Since the standard deviation of wind

elevation angle in open terrain rarely exceeds 12°, 98% (2.5 standard deviations) of observations will be within ±30°.

Using the multiplier is not necessary when the anemometer is used in a UVW configuration with R.M. Young model

26601UVW Translator.

7.3 Siting

The 27106T should be oriented with the propeller facing the predominant flow of air being

measured. No obstacle should interfere with the vertical air flow from either the up or down

direction.

The propeller responds only to the component of the air flow, which is parallel to the axis of its

rotation. Off-axis response closely approximates a cosine curve with appropriate polarity. With

perpendicular air flow, the propeller does not rotate.

7.4 Assembly and mounting

Materials required:

l5/32-inch hex key wrench

lUV resistant cable ties

lSmall pair of diagonal-cutting pliers

l6-inch to 10-inch torpedo level

lCable (shipped routed through the mounting pipe to mating connector)

l3/4-inch IPS threaded mounting pipe (shipped with the sensor)

l3/4 x 1-inch Nu-Rail crossover fitting
